After comforting Mereles, David put down the phone and fell into deep thought, and when he returned to his mind again, he called Loew, who was on vacation.

"David, if you let me know that you don't have anything serious, then you'll be in trouble when I go back!" Loew looked very high-spirited on the other end of the phone, I don't know if he was playing with bikini beauties on the beach!

Of course, David knew that Loew would certainly not be as unscrupulous as the younger players.

"Meireles called me just now and I agree that he is leaving, and after Deco comes, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to get a starting position!" David's figure was a little low, and he didn't seem to be in a high mood.

Loew on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, as if reassuring David, "Maybe your personality is really not suitable to be a decisive club president, if you want to open some, player turnover is a normal thing, even if there is no authoritative statistics, but I think the chance of a player dying in a club will not exceed 2%, so you don't have to be too burdened!" ”

David didn't know it, but he just didn't like it.

'Mereles is sure he's leaving, so I'm wondering, are there any other players out of your plans, and where do we need reinforcements?'

This batch of players was brought back to Notts County by David, Loew did not put forward any opinions, and the subsequent transfer operations were also made by David, and Loew only received training and games.

This inevitably leads to a problem!

Notts County's players are certainly talented and quality, but they don't necessarily fit into Loew's tactical system, and that's the problem.

David once talked to Loew, if there is a player he likes, Loew can give his opinion, David is not a person who does not know how to respect at all, but Loew did not make any requests, on the one hand, to avoid suspicion, on the other hand, he also believes in David's vision.

And now that Notts County have been promoted to the Premier League, there are bound to be some first-team players who have not kept up with the rhythm of Notts County, and it seems imperative to change some blood.

Long pain is better than short pain, it is better to solve it at once than to cut the flesh slowly, David doesn't want to be invaded by this feeling all the time.

Loew on the other end of the phone thought for a moment, and finally spoke: "First of all, the forward position, Villa and Di Natale have some overlapping types, whether from the perspective of the team or from the perspective of the players, it is not appropriate to keep both of them in the club, and from the perspective of enriching the team's tactics, we need a high striker." ”

'If I had to choose between two players, I would go with Villa, who is a little younger than Di Natale and who seems to feel more spiritual in front of goal, but of course, the two are almost the same, so it doesn't matter who stays.

"In the right midfield position, Kuyt's characteristics can enrich the team's tactics and enhance the team's ability to press in the front, but although Maggio has the attributes of a panacea, the speed of improvement is still a little worse, and I hope that the team can have a player with strong attacking ability on the right side, so continuing to keep Marcio is also delaying the player, he will not get too much playing time."

'There are no other substitutions to be made, but the few players who have come out of the Academy need to be properly placed and Babel and Gary Cahill may not get too many chances next season and it would be better to send them out on loan if possible.'

'As for Ramos, I want to keep him because he can play at right-back and centre-back and given the potential injury situation, there will be plenty of playing time for him.

"As for the goalkeeper position, Diego Lopes must be the main player, as for the second goalkeeper, Ben Foster and Joe Hart can be competent, but Ben Foster has more experience than Joe Hart, these two goalkeepers definitely can't both stay in the team, so just pick one out on loan, it's up to you!"

'I hope the first team will still be able to guarantee 23 or 25 players for the new season, I trust your vision and I know you will definitely not let me down.

Putting down the phone, Loew continued to enjoy the holiday, and as for such an annoying transfer, he wouldn't let himself be tormented!

Listening to the busy beep on the phone, David was still digesting the information in Loew's words.

Alas, it's a job I don't like!

According to Loew's meaning, the first players who need to leave are Di Natale and Maggio, two academy players and a goalkeeper, plus Mereles, who has already confirmed his departure, so many people have to leave at once, which is all David's heart!

It's still the old way, if you can go on loan, two academy players plus Maggio and a goalkeeper, these four players can be loaned to two satellite clubs in Notts County, which not only ensures the construction of the team, but also does not have the loss of players, but also strengthens the strength of the satellite clubs, and counts in one fell swoop.

However, at the level of Mereles and Di Natale, it is not something that can be solved by loan.

As a star who has really made a name for himself, if he transfers from Notts County, at least the middle and upper reaches of the top five leagues can afford to receive it, and the two satellite clubs of Notts County may not be able to get into their eyes.

And instead of worrying about where a few players are going, he doesn't know how to talk to Di Natale.

David remembers what he said two seasons ago when he invited Di Natale to join Notts County in Italy.

Let's create the future and create miracles together!

But after two seasons, how can he say that he wants to let the player leave?

After thinking about it and hesitating for a long time, David still called Di Natale directly.

David doesn't like to contact the players' agents, he likes to communicate directly with the players, and after clarifying each other's intentions, he will hand over the task of negotiating with the agent to the staff below.

The phone had just been connected, and before David could speak, Di Natale spoke first: "Boss, I've been waiting for your call!" ”

David was stunned for a moment, not knowing why.

"Actually, I had a deep talk with Mr. Loew at the end of the last game, and it was clear to me that we don't need two strikers of the same type, and to keep me and Villa in the team is not a good thing for us or for the team, so it is inevitable that one of us will leave!" Di Natale's tone was calm, but David felt a faint sadness in it.

'Villa is very talented and younger, he could be more helpful to the team in the future than me, and although I would also like to stay in Notts County and continue to do wonders with everyone, I can't be so selfish!'

"Boss, I remember what you said to me at the time, but I'm sorry, I can't complete my agreement with you!"

At this point, all that's left on the other end of the phone is choked up (to be continued.) )
